Serena Williams Fights Back In A Tutu

French Tennis Federation president Bernard Giudicelli told Tennis Magazine that William’s body-hugging super hero-like wardrobe “…will no longer be accepted.” He also added the FFT will be scrutinizing designer’s player collections for the play at Roland Garros next year, even though most have already been made. At the time, Williams said her reason for wearing the catsuit was as a tribute to: “All the moms out there that had a tough pregnancy and have to come back and try to be fierce, in the middle of everything. That’s what this represents. You can’t beat a catsuit, right?”

The Business Of Latex Couture

But we are featured as one of three companies/groups/producers questioned, about the current state of advertising. YNOT wanted to know what we do, and for us particularly, how the mainstreaming of alternate haute couture has changed how we’ve approached business in the past few years.

Gen Z yellow trend

But speaking of color choices and fashion, an overall top 2018 summer color choice has just been named. Yellow has been crowned the ‘new millennial pink’, touted as the color of choice for such fashion trenders like Meghan Markle, Kim Kardashian, and Amal Clooney (who wore a stunning yellow Stella McCartney to Meghan’s wedding) and host of other high-profile, fashion-influencing women.

Nicki Minaj Is Queen

Queen is the “Anaconda,” “Super Bass,” singer’s 4th album, chock full of the lady’s unique and provocative rap POV. But her wardrobe choices and video styling (some we have reported on already when she dropped the “Barbie Tingz and “Chun Li” videos) are unequaled in the pop field.

The Rich And Luscious Couture of Crazy Rich Asians

While Ocean’s 8 (opened in June) featured a female cast of Hollywood A-listers and is centered round fashions and the Met Gala, Crazy Rich Asians will, by all accounts, give “Sandy” Bullock and her crew a run for their sartorial stripes and prints.

Avanatgardista Leads With a Roadshow

he Avanatgardista Weekend, something we have reported on before, will surely prove to be a big event that we will most likely wish we could have attended. But even before this 2nd annual fetish fashion meet-up in Munich in October, there was the AVANTGARDISTA ROADSHOW.

Part 3-Couture & Cars Fashion Show

The ‘level playing field’ here, the runway actually just the cleared space in the museum, not up higher than the audience, brings the models up close and personal in a way that other events can’t usually manage. Yes, it does make the models’ walk on a whole different order, but we found now, in the two consecutive years we have shown at the C&C, that there is an intimacy when a runway is set like this, or on a back patio, or even on the street between a close pressed in crowd.
